Lean Mean Thirteen by Janet Evanovich:
Lean Mean Thirteen was just as fun as the previous 12 in this Janet Evanovich series. It truly is entertaining. Lots of fun to read. What could possibly happen next to Stephanie Plum?!
SO-SO:
I have just read the Stephanie Plum series back-to-back, enjoying them thoroughly, until I started reading Thirteen. I could not believe the same writer wrote this book. Everything from the characters to the plot felt off. It wasn't terrible, it was just so-so. Fourteen WAS terrible, so I have my fingers crossed that Fifteen will pick things back up.
Great fun:
This is another great offering from Janet Evanovich. Lean Mean Thirteen is probably the funniest book in the Stephanie Plum series so far. I really enjoyed it and am now looking forward to reading the next one.
Long may this series continue!
Lean, Mean Thirteen:
Janet Evanovitch did it again. Her "numerical" series is a riot. Stephanie Plum is my kind of heroine!!!
